Call for Participants: PTs Needed for Pain Study

Researchers from McMaster University are seeking physical therapist (PT) participants for an 18-month study on Pain PLUS, a new free information service for evidence-based pain management. The purpose of this study is to compare 2 different methods of sharing pain research evidence, as well as the knowledge and decisions made by 4 different types of professionals—physicians, nurses, rehabilitation professionals, and psychologists—involved in pain management. One method of sharing will be sending e-mail alerts. The other method will be providing web-based resources. All participants will have access to both services for 9 months each.
